Welcome to G Co 513th PIR 17th Airborne Division (Reenacted). G Co is a WWII living history organization dedicated to properly portraying the 513th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 17th Airborne Division in the European Theater of Operations (ETO). Currently, our unit participates in educational programs that educate the public through public displays, public battle reenactments, and tactical battles. Our primary intent as an organization is to honor our veterans by bringing to light some of the hardships and sacrifices they made during the Second World War. Many of G Co’s members have been involved in the reenacting hobby for several years and hold the deepest desire and commitment, to honor those who served our country during its greatest time of need.
Our primary impression is G Co /513th PIR /17th ABN while several members display a secondary impression of Pathfinders /507th PIR/82nd ABN. We encourage anyone interested in becoming a reenactor with our unit to contact us by utilizing the link located on the recruiting page.
